Sloth babies fall out of trees more than we like to think, and they are usually okay. The mother will come to get the infant, but it will take a while. In this video, an unnamed photographer speaking Portuguese hands the baby back to the sloth mother, saving her the last few steps -and probably quite a bit of time.
The video with the original audio is at Instagram. You notice how the mother reaches her arm out to the photographer, which has been interpreted as a sign of gratitude. However, as the video went viral, some folks with sloth experience tell us that the gesture is really a warning. One even said, “This is exactly what they do when they want to bite you.” The photographer was never in any real danger, because anyone can outrun a sloth. But the story should serve as a cautionary tale against ascribing human motives to the actions of wildlife. -via Nag on the Lake
